Pilgrim

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 10 years

Meet Pilgrim who is on a quest to find the special home he hasn't had for so long. Pilgrim was taken in as a stray cat. He is approximately 10 years old and is definitely a cat who would like a comfy sofa and lots of nap time in the warm. A lovely companion cat!!! Would like a quiet home where he can be spoilt. Sweet and gentle Pilgrim does struggle a little with his back legs we think he may have been involved in an rta at one time but he manages just fine. Such a lovely boy

About Pilgrim

What life with Pilgrim looks like

Pilgrim is an adult mixed breed cat waiting at Shropshire Street Cats in United Kingdom.

An adult cat usually shows their personality within a week. Give them a quiet room with everything they need (food, water, litter, hiding spot) and let them choose when to explore. Don't force interaction — every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Pilgrim, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Pilgrim?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Shropshire Street Cats handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Pilgrim on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Pilgrim if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Shropshire Street Cats will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Pilgrim already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Most cats on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Pilgrim isn't the right fit?: Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Shropshire Street Cats early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pilgrim and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
